lyrics

And the man is giving me the tray
I take the line
In this night
The only night in May

Odetta is crawling out of the speaker
And her voice is going
Deeper deeper baby deeper, deeper

She has a Mary Magdalene history
Of course the parents don't agree
Oh in their own fantasy
Conservative reality

Politicians in wonderland
And the business man is selling you a helping hand
And the radio plays - this is the end

Oh, it's a street, street life
It's a street, street life

And the man is giving me an advice
Oh Baby, Boulevardpapers are telling lies
At the end they will say, she was really nice
But her death was a surprise

Cold turkey is catching me
Cold water, cold water, cold water
Oh baby bring me water
Some water, baby please bring it to me

Oh its a speed, speed life
Its a speed, speed life

Do you remember the colors of Wonderland
Do you remember the first kiss, so intense
Do you remember the first sound you made
Do you remember why you are here and what you believe in

At the end I am sitting here
Taking tips and drinking beer
Music fills the atmosphere
And all the human

Look at this human
Beautiful human
Look at this woman
Gorgeous man
Oh all the human
All the human
No, they don't disappear

Oh its a sweet, sweet life
Baby it's a sweet, sweet life
